Cold Hardy Annuals Workshop - Seed to Blooms
Cold hardy annuals, aka cool flowers, are plants that live one year that you can start in the fall for spring blooms. Planting them in the fall allows them to get their roots established before cold weather sets in for larger, healthier plants and earlier spring blooms.
In this extensive, three hour workshop, you’ll learn everything you need to grow these amazing flowers with a special emphasis on six favorites- Snapdragons, Foxglove, Sweet William, Ammi, Campanula and Scabiosa. You’ll leave this workshop with the knowledge needed to overwinter these varieties and a tray of 72 started seedlings you sowed yourself!
We keep our class sizes small to allow for hands on learning and plenty of time for Q & A. Because of this, classes tend to fill quickly! Don’t wait, sign up today.
Topics included-
Tour of our seed starting area,
Selecting varieties of flowers for fall planting
Garden bed prepping
Seed starting
Natural pest and disease prevention
Building a low tunnel
Transplanting vs Direct Sowing
Harvesting and post harvest flower care
Materials Included-

Extensive Workbook - Flower snips
Please note, this is a hand on workshop where we will be starting seeds, transplanting seedlings and learning to build a low tunnel so please wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty.
